I applied for an Amazon position thru…

I applied for an Amazon position thru Talent.com. Within less than a minute I had 10 notifications. Everything from Disability Benefits (I AM NOT DISABLED). Job postings just asking for more information, in order to harass and solicit. Cash app card which I do not have saying a deposit has been made. A stimulus check waiting for an account to deposit into. I have spent countless hours unsubscribing from notifications as they come in; but it just made it worse. I am at my wits end. I've had to silence my phone and have to constantly check for valid notifications. Your company is a joke. You prey on innocent people looking for employment. My wish for your company is to get the same back 1000 fold. It is 9/14 and I'm still receiving over 100 notifications daily. There is no way to unsubscibe, only cancel my email address that I've had for 20 years. Your company sucks the joy of life.

Horrible company

Horrible company. Hired them for recruiting ads, but they didn't deliver good results and they seem unorganized. Their rep emailed me agreeing to modify our contract per my request. However, their company says their rep has left and they disagree with those changes.

Hello Audrey, We are sorry to hear about your experience. Talent.com is an intermediary between candidates and employers. We only host job offers on our website to offer you a list of opportunities, therefore we do not review your applications or participate in the selection process. We provide several solutions that help job seekers find a job, such as email alerts with new vacancies.
If you want to improve the relevancy of your alerts, please follow these simple steps: 1. Sign in to your account. 2. Click on "Settings" on the collapse menu under your name. 3. Choose "My notifications" on the left menu. 4. Go to "Job recommendations" and select "Yes" on the statement "Send me Talent․com's job recommendations based on my profile, job search activity, saved jobs and applied jobs".
For better recommendations, we suggest you use specific job titles that you want, not general keywords.
We hope this improves your job search!!

Talent.com started spamming me with job offers for non-existant fantasy jobs based on information I've never made publically available. ie: The information they're using was gained via spyware or illegal information sharing.

This site is a scam through and through, DO NOT TRUST them.

They had stopped sending mails after I blocked them repeatedly, but now somehow they're unblocked and trying their luck again.

Why do I have to give it even one star. Talent.com is a total waste of time. Also too many emails daily with same jobs repeated over and over and over again. Rubbish.

Talent.com leaked my phone number and now I have an overwhelming amount of scam calls everyday. Before applying to job, I had an average about 2-3 scam calls a day, but after making an account with Talent.com I have 9 scam calls everyday. The calls have been so frequent, I have been debating changing my phone number. In addition, I was offered a job interview but then googled the company and it was fake. The company never existed. Horrible.

this company is a scam!

This company gives you empty promises only. If you have specific questions or asking about portfolio they are trying to redirect you to some kind of "manager" where you should write an email. They charge you money for bad quality headshots at 7083 Hollywood Blvd and you will never hear from them. Waste of time, money and who knows what else

Utterly worthless

Utterly worthless. Those few postings that were relevant were ones I'd found through other search agents long before. I've read their responses which blame everything on how your profile is set up. Please tell me how as a marketing communication professional with only marketing communication work on his profile winds up with job postings for an ObGyn and Explosive Detonation Technician. Talk about a glitch in the matrix.

Avoid Talent.com as your job seeking resources!

talent.com is an ad driven business...that is ALL that it does. It USES dubious job listing and gets paid when you view them and click them..this ad revenue from email, text msg, and links to dubious websites is how talent.com makes money. That is their mission and priority. The mission and priority is NOT focused to offer opportunities for employment. The company exists only to USE dubious job listing to get as many job hunting prospects to click through the ad revenue generating network that pays talent.com There are many other job and recruiting firms that are legitimate and actually have head hunters, and job recruiters that will serve the job seeker in a more honest and successful way. Avoid talent.com. you are very unlikely to get an job, any interview and any leads for an actual job. These are the facts. NOW you KNOW!

Maybe this could explain the reason you've been redirected to another websites. Please, if you have more comments, write us to hello@talent.com.

Dated postings, pointless waste of time

At least 3 of the jobs that were listed as "just listed" on your site no longer exist. What is the point of posting dated job openings? You go to all the trouble of creating an application only to find out the job doesn't exist? Pointless website.

Horrible service, lack of communication and professionalism

The company i work for is a partner of Talent.com, we advertise talent's job offers on our platform, and saying this i do not recommend talent.com. Overnight, they hid thousands of valid and verified clicks we got to their job offers and website so that they wouldn't have to pay us what they should for our services, making us lose hundreds of dollars in marketing. At this moment we estimate that at least half of the clicks we got to their website and therefore half of the revenue they owe us went missing overnight from their partner platform which they use to show their partners their performance, clicks, and revenue. We contacted them about this issue weeks ago and besides taking weeks to answer in a roundabout way, they are yet to solve the issue. I was not expecting this lack of professionalism, responsibility, and transparency from a multi-million dollar company, if the issue is not solved and indeed this is a scam as we are seeing more people complaining, we will alert this company local authorities and do anything we can to insure we get paid in full and no one else gets scammed.
